NOTE: In the system where you run the IT Assistant user interface from, the Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) should have at least 256 MB of free space for the JRE
memory (heap memory). This memory requirement is recommended for IT Assistant
to download the MSI file that contains the Dell agent. The MSI file size is typically in
the range of 60–64 MB.
Using IT Assistant, if you are installing or upgrading Server Administrator
using Web packs, ensure that you have set the required size for the /tmp
directory on the managed system. The exact size required depends on the
Web pack you need to use. For information about size requirement, see the
download page at support.dell.com corresponding for that Web pack.
To successfully upload the Web pack to IT Assistant: Ensure that you increase
the Request Timeout value to 600 seconds under Tools
 User Preferences 
Connections tab.
